Of course, no problem tagging me here.

Great to see all the different things you have going on! Looks like you are doing a fantastic job to me, despite the inevitable setbacks which are all part of the learning process. We also have strong winds here in the Pyrenees and I made the mistake of not connecting our trampoline to the ground when we first bought it. This ended with multiple squashed plants after it rolled across the entire garden with the wind! Won't be making that mistake again ;)

Our ants are harmless by comparison to yours. I had no idea they could even do that to a lemon tree! @sirenahippie seems to have a great idea for the solution. Even if your goal is not to kill them, perhaps you could just leave ample kitchen scraps for them each night near their nest? Don't know much about ants but I assume if they can find what they need close to home, they won't eat your plants?
